Latinos account for one of every four youth in the United States


Washington, D.C.  The 2020 Census reveals a sizeable Latino youth population (under-18-year-olds) throughout the nation, with 18.8 million Latino youth in the country. The numbers show us that Latinos tend to be a younger population than our nation’s population overall. In many states, the Latino share of the youth population is significantly larger than the Latino share of the states’ total population.

 

“Given this relatively large share of Latinos among our population’s youth, it is critical that the full range of policies affecting our nation’s youth take into account the needs of the Latino community.

 

“Our nation cannot address such challenges as poverty, poor health care, or the lack of access to quality education without tailored approaches that enhance the opportunities and well-being of Latino families and children. An investment in Latino children today can help ensure a strong, prosperous nation tomorrow.”

 

Youth Analysis

• In several states with sizeable Latino communities, Latino youth make up at least 13.0 percent of the states’ youth population. (See table below)

• Some states had considerable differences between the Latino share of the overall population and the youth population.

• In Arizona, while Latinos comprise 30.7 percent of the state’s total population, they are 43.7 percent of its youth.

• In Nevada, Latinos are 28.7 percent of the total population compared to 40.6 percent of the state’s youth.

• In New Mexico, just under half of the state’s overall population is Latino (47.7 percent), while nearly 60 percent of its youth are Latino.
